Weeping Willow Tree
Plant Height: 30’-40’
Plant Spacing: 30’-40’
Light Preference: Full Sun
Zones: 4-9
Price: $14

The Weeping Willow is one of the most recognizable and beloved trees among gardeners. Known for its romantic appearance, it features long, hanging branches that extend almost to the ground, creating a soft, rounded shape. This tree is one of the fastest-growing options available, quickly transforming from a slender sapling into an impressive specimen. Ideally suited for larger properties where its beauty can be fully appreciated, it thrives best in moist soil but is adaptable to various soil conditions and can endure some drought once established. With the Weeping Willow, you can enjoy graceful and serene beauty in a remarkably short period.

Please note that these trees are classified as whips, meaning they have little to no branching, and they come in a one-gallon pot with healthy roots. Be sure to plant them away from foundations and water or sewer lines, as their roots can potentially damage these structures

**Butterfly W**d (Asclepias tuberosa)**

**Host Plant for:** Monarch Butterflies

Most animals avoid eating butterfly w**d because it has an unpleasant taste and can make them sick. However, monarch butterflies are attracted to this brightly colored perennial for laying their eggs. After the eggs hatch, the caterpillars consume the leaves and sometimes the flowers, despite the plant containing toxins that deter most creatures. The caterpillars can store this poison in their bodies to protect themselves from predators.

While there are many species of milkw**d that vary in size and flower type, butterfly w**d stands out with its vibrant blooms. It does not spread as aggressively as some other varieties and lacks the milky white sap that appears when the stem is broken in other milkw**ds.
